I was asked why I want to fly for Republic, why I think it's a good fit for me, as well as the scenario of your CA developing cyanosis from Hypoxia on a flight and how you'd handle it as an FO (check on him, put on your 02, put on his, check pressurization system and emergency descent from there). I was also asked what it means to me to be an FO - again reinforce CRM, safety, also the position of learning from the CA and the rest of the crew and personnel in the company. After this the CA began the technical portion - super straight forward. Read a few remarks on a METAR, a TAF, then asked if an alternate was needed based on our ETA. I initially messed this up after I missed a FM line where ceilings required an alternate, but the CA had some grace with me and gave me an opportunity to correct myself and all was well. Also asked what if we had 3 alternates filed (then you'd need fuel to dest, furthest alternate, plus 45 mins at normal cruise airspeed). Showed me...

    Similar experience to those already posted. Shuttle takes about 45 mins from the airport. Make sure you have the shuttle booking number to call from the email in case you arrive early or late and need to rebook the shuttle. Started around 8am, facilities tour and ask the pilots questions lasted for about an hour total. Then back to the hotel where they did interviews in order based on when people needed to leave. I was one of the last with a late flight home. Started by looking in logbooks,...

    Interview process is still as described in previous interviews. You will be flown to Indianapolis under positive space. A shuttle will be arranged for you to the hotel. Upon arriving you will check and and have the rest of your arrival day to study or relax. The next morning you are asked to arrive between 0745-0800 in the lobby with the other candidates. From there an HR rep will retrieve you and take you on a facilities tour. At the end of the tour, you will be sat in a classroom for a...

    Similar to prior interviews listed. Make sure to have contact number for Shuttle bus if arriving later than expected of the departure time for the shuttle. I would recommend arriving early in the lobby the day of the interview. I arrived at about 0730 and then started at 0800 for the tour of the facilities. After the tour, It was a Q&A panel of 3 captains. They made us felt at ease and made the experience very relaxing. They took us back to the hotel for interviews. Before that, they...

    My experience was similar to previous posts. Flew in the day prior. Republic puts you up at their Brickyard Hotel adjacent to their training facility and corporate headquarters (still under construction). 7:45am met in the hotel lobby (complimentary breakfast offered). 8am an HR rep gives the group a tour of the training facility - newly constructed, everything is super nice - followed by an informational session with HR and current pilots. Halfway through the HR rep leaves and you can ask...

    The process is very similar to what everyone else described. I arrived a day early and was picked up by the company shuttle along with one FA and two pilots. The training facility and hotel is very nice. Front desk was friendly and helpful. Met with the other candidates morning of in the lobby and was met by one of the captains and HR who conducted half of the interviews. The captain was very friendly and tried to put us all at ease. If you've made it to the interview portion they want to...

    Overall, the interview was straightforward and aligned with what others have said and what's on the study guide. I flew out the day prior and stayed overnight in their very nice hotel. We met in the lobby with the other interviewees at 07:45. From there we got a tour of their training building which was clean and modern. After that, there was a presentation and a Q and A. We then had to fill out a sheet with our flight times so come prepared with all your totals that you might need. The...

    My process, as with everyone else here, started the day before my scheduled interview when I arrived at the hotel. I am close enough to Indianapolis that I was able to drive up, so I parked in the parking garage next to the hotel. I spent the night, and the next morning at 7:45 myself and three other applicants met in the lobby of the hotel, where an HR rep met us and walked us over to the training center for a brief tour. We then sat in a classroom where there were two training captains and...

    Republic reached out to me while I had my CMEL, I did not have my ATP written complete or had my RATP. Much like everybody else has said, the experience was very low threat, friendly, and smooth. Republic flew me out the day prior and provided a shuttle both to and from KIND. After check-in on day one you are more or less free until the next morning. You meet in the lobby between zero 0745 and 0800 the morning of the interview. From 8 to 9, you will be walked around the training facility as...

    They started by asking about my current job and if I have ever worked with anyone that I have not enjoyed working with, and how Iv dealt with that issue. I told them that I dealt with it by setting the tone and working hard to alter the way I asked for things and delegated tasks. I basically attempted in my best ability to work as SAFELY and efficiently with that person. There were a few more HR questions that were stated on here, (view the study guide of this...

    Flew out the weekend before the interview date. They set up all ride and flight accommodations for the interview. Once landing, I was shuttled to the hotel attached to the training facility. Staff was extremely pleasant. Enjoy the night in the hotel and expect to start the interview day off with a tour of the training facility. The tour will start at approx 0745-0800 depending on when the HR rep arrives. After the tour, you'll have a Q&A session with the pilots that will be...
